I’ve had the same problem with alcohol for cooking. Somebody told me they sell the small, airline size bottles at liquor stores. I haven’t shopped for them though, so can’t say if it’s easily found or if it’s true for your area.

Regarding Pink Cordless Drills and dead batteries.
Cordless drills hit their stride when manufacturers introduced the lithium-ion battery several years ago. These batteries combine huge energy density with light weight. (It’s no wonder they’re slowly replacing nickel-cadmium batteries.) Tool companies launched their lithium-ion revolution with big 28- and 36-volt models—tools that had great power but were also unwieldy. Now, virtually all manufacturers have added much nimbler 18-volt models. That kind of shift is PM’s signal to get to work, testing to see how well these drills meet a homeowner’s real-world needs.
As of now I haven’t come across a pink battery or drill.
